Whisky review: Ballentine blended whisky 21 years old, bottled @ 43%

-Hurrah for ultra-premium never-to-purchase whiskies !

Colour: light gold, full bodied.

Nose: Very mineral, depth of toffee, candied fruits and cassonade.

Mouth: heavy chewy mineral toffee, spices and hints of ashes.

Finish: lingering caramel and spices.

B- for the taste. It's a good arrival, yet the rest remains uni-dimensional.
E for the price. 163$ (SAQ) is, compare to the Chivas, better yet way off. However, I would suggest to try it, at least once. But avoid buying. There are much better product at much lower prices.
B+ for the presentation. Pristine classy bottle, very nice.
